Learning to do library and web-based information research is an important part of information competency. These abilities are increasingly important in our networked, information-rich society and can be applied in college work, as well as in one’s personal and professional life.​ Library Information Skills 1000 is a non-credit course offered as seven independent workshops that can be used to help students meet the information competency learning outcomes required by their courses and as part of the CCSF Information Competency graduation requirement.

Library
Workshop Labs Do you want to try an online workshop, but
would like a little in-person support? These labs let you choose any
online workshop. A librarian is on site to help you in a supportive,
computer lab environment. Because the workshops take about an hour or
so, you must show up at the start of the lab period.
